Loi, N.V. and Binh, P.T. (2022) Study on the components and biological properties of the essential oil of Amomum aromaticum Roxb. in Ha Giang, Vietnam. Food Research (Malaysia), 6. pp. 390-393. ISSN 2550-2166
Abstract
The essential oil of Amomum aromaticum Roxb. in Ha Giang was obtained by steam distillation and dried with Na₂SO₄. Using the gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) method, 26 components in the essential oil were predicted by comparing their retention times and determining molecular weights. In particular, there were 13 hydrocarbons such as monoterpenes (33.03%), sesquiterpenes (1.08%), and 13 oxygenated components such as aldehydes (52.04%), alcohols (10.42%), ketones (1.98%), and oxide (0.14%). Antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Enterococcus faecalis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa of the essential was identified by the agar diffusion method. The antioxidant activity was determined by using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical percentage inhibition and the observable result was 46.12±0.15%.
